Outline of the Format

2. There are a variety of roles being recruited (permanent and contract) and different types of firms.
3. Each recruiter will stay at their table for the entire night and the members will rotate. There will be three rotations.
4. Attendees will select which recruiters they wish to meet and will sign up in advance for the recruiters of their choice.
5. The Recruiter at each table will moderate the discussion.
6. At each table, each person will do their elevator pitch to introduce themselves to the table. Keep it short, maximum of two minutes
7. The recruiter at the table may do their elevator pitch about themselves and their practice.
8. Each person at the table has an opportunity to ask the recruiter a question in turn, as they go around the table, giving every person a chance to ask questions. They will go around as many times as time permits.
9. How many times they go around the table will depend on the depth of the questions.
10. Should the questions start to run out at a table, I will provide a list of standard questions and issues that each Recruiter can address.
11. Each segment will be 45-60 minutes;
12. Time permitting, there will be a wrap up session at the end.
13. The Recruiters will be totally candid about the job environment and advice given. TheGAAP.net and TFN are professional groups that treat all discussions as privileged and stays in the room. Hence nothing discussed at the event will have an impact on your career and/or job search so we encourage and expect full transparency.
14. The Recruiters are open to meeting you after the event. The most likely format is a short phone call. This is up to you to initiate based on the conversation. Please don’t expect this of every recruiter. Ask based on how the discussion goes at your table.
